- An overly-specific term that would be used in place of vatra-camu in normal speech only in a case where one wanted to specify that the relative in question was married to one’s father rather than one’s mother. There are additionally even more specific terms such as vatrotca-caminu ‘father’s wife’ and vatrotca-camotcu ‘father’s husband’ which are usually reserved for legal documents or other language that needs to be very precise.
